My children's stepfather!

I'll start off by saying I am madly in love with my husband, he is a true blessing to my children and I.










Now, to get to the reason for writing this.
I have a 6 year old boy and a 4 year old girl. They mean so much to me, it is almost unbelievable! I have been with my husband for a little over 3 years and we have been married for 4 months. While I love him with all my heart and I know he is a wonderful man of God, I can't help but to pull my hair out (figuratively) at times because of how my 2 children and him act towards eachother.

My son has some anger problems and is going to see a therapist in another couple of weeks. He literally has a hard time controlling his temper and himself, it's really heartbreaking. My husband understands something is wrong and that he needs help, but when my son is having one of his fits, my husband starts yelling and gets really upset and it leads to a big argument between him and my son. It is so frustrating.

My daughter has not been diagnosed, but I'm almost positive she suffers from OCD. She has to do things certain ways, some things she absolutely refuses to do because it "isn't right". If certain things don't go her way, she acts likes she's dying! Her blood father has OCD, so I feel she probably got it from his genes. She is, in the nicest words, very complicated! My husband also understands her problems and he tries to be nice, but that doesn't stop him from losing his temper and yelling. 

Now, my husband is 27 and he is a BIG kid! He loves driving fast, video games, playing around in stores... I'm fine with all that, no complaints, besides the fast driving, lol! He just doesn't understand children (or maybe it's just my children). He loves them, I know he does, but his arguments with them are so silly!

I love my husband and I love my children. They are all such huge blessings! God has been doing great things in my life! 


All of this frustration of having to deal with my husband and my children arguing constantly, has me going crazy! The one thing that keeps me going is GOD! He has made me see all the good things in my relationship with my husband. I use to dwell on these bad times and I wanted out before we were married! But God spoke to my heart and I knew this was the man I was meant to be with for the rest of my life!

It isn't easy at all, it is one of the hardest things to deal with (in my opinion). 
Things like this tear marriages apart, but when I said "for better or worse" I meant it! And when God told me to marry this man, I knew there had to be a good reason! Every day these problems are getting better and everyday I am thanking God for leading me in this direction.. there is no place else my children and I should be!

If you are going through anything like this, just let go and pray.. God will lead the way!
